From the moment you came to Camp, you were your siblings' protector as you all got settled, and your godly half-siblings have grown on you. They become your beating hearts as you take the hits for them and guide them, and you wouldn't change a thing, but you still get tired sometimes. He remembers what that was like.
Will Solace was stressed when he first met you, as he often is, head healer and Apollo cabin counselor and everything. It was his turn to host the arts and crafts activity that afternoon, and you'd think his two big boy jobs would excuse him, but really it just allowed him to do them less often. There was noise, mess, and few older campers capable of crowd management.
A younger sibling of yours got hot glue in their hair, bursting into tears on the spot. Before Will could move his long legs fast enough to get there, you dropped to a crouch to meet your sibling at eye level. You cooed and shushed them, saying gentle comforts as you pulled out half-melted globs from their hair. He watched on— watched you— almost in shock. Your dark brown hair shined a warm hazel as it caught the light, and his eyes followed the paths of your chunky highlights as they curved around your head, your face.
You'd burned your fingertips when you pulled that hot glue off, so he invited you to the clinic to fix you up. Really, he could have healed you with a single hymn right there at arts and crafts. He just wanted an excuse to talk to you for longer, even though he stuttered through the first words he'd ever spoken to you, asking you if you were okay.
He's got this dorky kind of crush on you before you get together. He trips over his own feet when he sees you, rushing to talk to you. He mother-hens you, worrying over every possible little scratch, but aware and respectful of your boundaries all the same. He freaks out the first time you actually get hurt, and dedicates all his time to you until you get better.
He pretends to be so confident and assured when he's trying to get to know you, but he crumbles like sand when you start to reciprocate. He was speechless when you brought him a little gift for the first time, before completely melting like a blushing puddle. When you reached out to touch him or hold his hand for the first time, he tried to keep his cool, but on the inside he was screaming for fifteen minutes. (You could definitely tell, with how red his face was.)
Your guys' siblings tease the HELL out of you. The Apollo and Aphrodite cabin team up just to get you guys in each other's orbits, setting you up to do activities together, teasing you both about your obvious crushes, trying to spy on your dates. They love seeing you both make eachother happy, but by gods do they also love making you both suffer from embarrassment.
When Will finally asks to be your boyfriend, you obviously say yes, and Will immediately gets a brutal shovel talk from your siblings. Totally worth it.
He loves sitting with you in silence, doing your own things together, his head on your shoulder and his arms around your waist as he watched you play video games or write. His favorite thing in the world is when you're cuddled up, maybe his head on your lap or vice versa, reading to eachother in bed. He LOVES when you lay your heads in eachother's laps and brush through eachother's hair, it's the best thing in the universe.
He loves how you love, with your whole heart. He loves watching you with the kids, his heart one big ache as he remembers how life used to be before the wars. He used to be smack in the middle of the Apollo cabin, with a dozen big sisters and brothers. He's the oldest now— everyone else gone or left. He loves to take care of you, but when you look out for him, support him, help him when he needs— it heals a part of him that misses being taken care of. One of the best parts of your relationship is that you can rely on eachother, take care of eachother and be cared for in turn.
Bridgerton and PJO ship for @sugutoad (ships are in order of who was the easiest choice to make!)
₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎
PJO
Ship/Reasons
I ship you with Leo Valdez, Bad Boy Supreme! He's pretty close to your ideal type (if maybe little a too talkative); funny, charismatic, a little bit cocky, with the biggest wettest brown eyes and the saddest little heart. You have a similar snarky sense of humor and speaking style, although Leo is more of an extravert than you, which is a nice balance. I also think you have some similarities in your flaws, and seeing them reflected in someone else would actually be really good for you. You both struggle with self-esteem issues and perfectionism, realizing somebody as amazing as your other halve also deals with the same problem will help you move past self-pity and internalize how much you're truly worth. On a related note, I also think you both have some stuff to work out regarding attention and a need for it, I think you'd be able to reign in the other's more self-centered/attention-seeking instincts. Leo is someone who desperately needs someone to truly talk to about all the issues he internalizes, someone brave enough to express vulnerable emotions and coax him into doing the same, and in return, he would be eternally loyal.
Headcanons
All the cuddles, so many cuddles. Leo is such a cuddle bug! He prefers to be the little spoon so you're usually jetpacking (although maybe "the big spoon" would be the proper term, since you really only have 3 inches of height difference, he's a Short King). He's so warm btw, basically a human space heater.
Leo's kisses are energetic yet gentle, like him, he peppers you with kisses all over your lips, your cheek, your eyelashes, your chin, your neck. Even after he pulls away you can still feel the heat on the places he kissed. Especially loves to kiss you on your moles.
Magic carpet dragon rides on Festus! And yes, he will sing a "Whole New World" as you soar through the clouds whether you ask or not. He actually has a pretty nice a voice, a little pitchy but not bad at all for a beginner. He'll take you anywhere you want to go; when there was a Fourth of July fireworks show at camp, he saw you were planning on staying inside because you hated the loud noises so much and gave you a ride up away out of the noise range, and you two watched the fireworks from above together.
Your upbringing in the isolated community of Nova Roma means you are living under a complete rock when it comes to mortal pop culture, which is Leo's bread and butter. So of course every time he mentions some movie or artist or whatever and you go "I've never heard of that" he gasps exaggeratedly and immediately drags you off to show you whatever it is. You end up having a lot of movie night dates, which fail to truly edify you on pop culture because you two get easily distracted by each other 🤭
When your temper goes off, he can usually diffuse the situation by making you laugh. Got a low grade? He'll mock your teacher until you no longer care at all about their judgement. Starting to get pissed off at a bad day? You'll be so busy laughing you forget what you were angry about.
He flirts with you constantly, always a wink or a pet name or a quick comment about how wonderful you are. If you turn it back on him even a little however, he immediately becomes a stammering mess. Lol, he can dish it out but can't take it.
Your Cabin
Salve Nova Roma, filia Veneris! You are clearly a daughter of Venus, Roman goddess of love, beauty and sovereignty. (Which also makes you a relative of Julius Caesar and the Julian dynasty, by the way!) Physically, you are excellent match for a child of Venus, you have the beautiful multicolored eyes her children are often mentioned to have. I think you also have a good personality match; you care about aesthetics and beauty, both internal and external, you are a dreamer and a romantic, and your flaws of jealousy, temperamentally and self-centeredness are also found in your godly parent (I'll leave it up to your own self-reflection to decide which is your fatal flaw). You're also very sensitive and in touch with your emotions, fitting for the child of a goddess of feelings.
In contrast to her more chaotically aligned Greek aspect of Aphrodite, the Roman goddess Venus is not only the goddess of love and beauty, she's also a sovereignty goddess, and the grandmother of Rome through her son Aeneas, and this is reflected in your INTJ aspects, your perfectionism and judgement. You are no ruler yourself, being soft-spoken and with no love for the spotlight, but you are a kingmaker, a student of history who knows what it means to work hard for what you want. You know the cost of power and it is up to you to decide who is worthy, who has payed in full.
Backstory
You are the daughter of a senator in New Rome, favored by Venus for her charisma on the hearing floor. Your family was thrilled to be blessed with a demigod child, it was always assumed you would follow in your mother's footsteps, even outdo her, in the political sphere. You were pushed to become a perfect citizen, the best and the brightest. Even as its become clear you had no aptitude for the stage of politics, and would much prefer a role behind the scenes as a legislator and negotiator, your mother is still trying to push you towards "greatness." You love your parents but they get stressful and exhausting and you could feel the toll this was having on your mental health.
"Anna, you're wasting your heritage hiding in the shadows! You could even be a Consul one day, as great as your siblings!"
You bit your tongue rather than remind your mother what happened to your famous half brother the Consul, and risk the start of another rant on proper filial piety.
For you, volunteering the legionnaires of Camp Jupiter wasn't just doing your duty as a Roman; it was an escape. Which is also why after the war ended, you also volunteered to go to Camp Halfblood as an envoy, to help draw up the new peace treaty between camps (the lack of phone service there meant, for the first time, complete freedom from your family).
How You Met
You met through Piper! You stay in Cabin 10 when at you were at Camp Halfblood, of course, and became good friends with her. She really appreciated having someone who always advocated for the quieter members of the cabin, and she wanted to bring you out of your shell, so she figured, what better way to do so than to introduce you to the most out of his shell person she knew? Leo was immediately smitten with you, of course, like every pretty girl that was (to him) completely out of his league. He started flirting with you in the typical fashion, hoping to make you laugh. The last thing he was expecting was for you to fall face first for him right back.
Confession
Leo had been flirting with you since the day you'd met, but you'd never taken it seriously. A boy that cute and funny, and a hero to boot, genuinely interested in you? You couldn't believe that to be anything but a daydream turned delusion, fueled by (what should have been) harmless jokes from a consummate flirt. You always laughed at his "jokes" though, even when your heart ached from the teasing because you felt like if you were honest, he'd run away in disgust.
Then one day it was too much. It had been a bad day all around, too much work, too much noise, too many people, all culminating with an argument with Drew Tanaka that left you running from Cabin 10 in overwhelmed tears. Leo saw you streak past him as he left Cabin 9, muffling sobs and followed you into the woods.
"Hey, chica, mi amor, what's wrong? I hate to see a pretty girl like you so sad."
You'd had enough. Of all the times to mock you like this... And you told him through tears to cut the bullshit, enough with the jokes, to stop playing with your heart.
Leaving Leo Valdez in stunned silence is certainly an achievement few can say they have accomplished.
Well. Too late for him not hating you. You released all your feelings in a rambling torrent, how hard you'd fallen for him, how his flirting left you with your face heating up and butterflies in your stomach. The last thing you were expecting was him to sweep you up in a warm hug.
"Oh Anna, I never- everything I said, I meant. I had no idea- I didn't think you liked me back, you know you're out of my league right? Hehe, always time to change your mi-" your kisses quickly silenced the self-deprecating jokes.
That's twice you've gotten Leo Valdez to shut up, you should win a medal for that by the way.

Bridgerton
(btw, feel free to imagine yourself in any of these dresses I feel would suit you wonderfully for this ship! The top are more fantastical options and the bottom are actual regency fashion plates!)
Ship/Reason
I ship with you Colin Bridgerton! He fits your ideal type to a capital T; a perfect gentlemen, a (false) cassonova, a sweet boy who'd do anything for love, a middle child desperate to not be dismissed anymore. I think both of you struggle with being seen and heard, although in different ways, and could commiserate on that. Both of you also know what its like to feel stifled by your family. Colin would be thrilled to have someone who not only actually listens to him and cares about his opinions, but who also can contribute to the conversation in kind. We've seen what a wonderfully attentive lover he is. He's always going to be patient with you, to console you when you're hurting, lift you up when you feel low and speak up for you when you can't speak up for yourself. I also think your tendency to get trapped in analysis paralysis and his tendency to act on impulse would balance each other out.
Headcanons
When he started courting you he would bring you beautiful bouquets and corsages, and at first you thought it was only coincidence how fitting each one was to the situation but you soon realized Colin also knows the language of flowers! Even now you two still exchange little messages with each other, a red tulip next to your bed when you wake up in the morning, a ring of daisies left on his work desk in the afternoon.
Recites poetry for you! He knows how much you love Tudor era history so he memorized some of Shakespeares sonnets and when you two are relaxing together in evenings he'll recite for the family (looking directly at you the whole time of course).
You speak together for hours on just about every topic. He's thrilled to find someone who'll let him talk about his travels and his plants and all the things he's interested in. His brothers make fun of him, his sisters dismiss him, but you? You're always there to listen, and that's why he fell in love with you. The conversation runs so smoothly between the two of you, you quickly loose track of time.
You two adore picnics in the countryside, sitting on a blanket eating strawberries. Just you, and him, and the sounds of nature and the warm sun on your faces. It's all very Box Hill in Emma coded.
You often visit Penelope together often, especially when Lord Debling leaves for his travels (because yes, she still marries Lord Debling, and they actually really truly fall in love, and Pen also gets a happy ending because she deserves that)! You two thoroughly enjoy each other's company, both of you are not only excellent listeners, you also have quite strong opinions, and are equally judgemental in your own ways. Quite the pair 💅, I wouldn't want to get on your bad sides!
There are some benefits to being the little sibling for once. You and Colin are free to do as you please. If you're overwhelmed by the noise and crowds of the ball, you can leave early without any side-eyes, you can travel across the country, even the continent, without any worry of responsibilities back home (although Anthony greatly appreciates your business acumen), and you feel no pressure to make any heirs, when you two fall into each other's arms, it out of pure desire, not duty.
Backstory
You arrived in the Ton shortly before the second season began. You say that you are the daughter of a wildly successful fur trader in the province of Canada, here to experience the social life and marriage mart of London.
While that's not entirely untrue, that's far from the whole story. You're not just here as a debutant, you're also here to hunt down an infamous con artist and debt dodger who's hoping to escape his money troubles in the colonies across the Atlantic, one Jack Featherington! It was you who first suspected something was fishy when an American ruby miner offered to sell stock to your father, and it's up to you to bring the man to justice and stop his schemes. Now to catch him in the act...
How You Met
You realized Jack Featherington was doing most of his business at a gentlemen's club, and since a respectable young lady such as yourself could not enter such an establishment, you'd have to find someone on the inside to help you. You approached the owner, Will Mondrich, for help, and he gave you more than just information; he got you in touch with a Mr Colin Bridgerton, who'd been approached by Lord Featherington for business, and was happy to offer himself up as bait. You'd heard of Mr Bridgerton before (who could forget the scandal he and Miss Marina Thompson had been embroiled in last season) and had even briefly seen him at a ball, behind all the swarms of young ladies vying for his attention. You hadn't expected to find a young man so eager to help, full of kindness and youthful hope. And he hadn't expected this mysterious young lady with ulterior motives to actually be so charmingly sweet. So after Featherington was foiled and sent packing back to America (where his old marks will no doubt find him again and bring him to justice), you decided to stay in London and get to know Colin a little better...
Confession
You two courted for not only a full season, but a full year! Colin was afraid to rush into love again, after having his heart broken by Marina, and you were afraid to leave your home in Canada forever after having only barely seen England. Colin took you across the country as his guest, showing you not only the Bridgerton manor, but the whole of the country, and you fell in love with it as much as with him.
The proposal was in private; Colin knew you would feel so uncomfortable with a public proposal, all those people staring and the noise. You wanted romance, not a performance.
So instead he took you outside on a midnight stroll of the gardens. You were sitting under the gazebo and gazing at the stars together as Colin worked up the courage to speak his heart. It was a beautiful late spring night, smelling of blooming flowers and perfectly temperate, if maybe a tad too humid. The stars quickly disappeared under a haze of clouds, something you pointed out, and Colin began to panic. It was going to rain, his perfect proposal plan was going to be ruined. Daphne had warned him about this, but he was so anxious he didn't listen. You were going to get wet and cross with him, and when he went back home in defeat his brothers would laugh at him and he was never going to get to give you the perfect proposal he knew you'd been dreaming of.
You knew Colin well enough by now to sense the growing distress in his mood. You finally felt sure that he was the one you wanted to spend your life with, but now you started to wonder if he felt the same. Had you done something wrong? Maybe you shouldn't have pointed out the change in the weather, although you couldn't fathom why that would have been enough to turn him so. Unless it was the final straw. Maybe you had complained too much before, sure he'd always taken your sensitive nature in stride before but maybe he was finally sick of comforting you. You started to feel sick. You needed to get back inside where you could melt into the crowd of Bridgertons, who had already started to feel like family to you.
You stood up and, stating you were ready to go back in, started making to do so. Colin followed shortly behind.
"W-wait! Miss Anna, please, just a moment!" Perfect timing, the sky burst open in a torrential flood, a summer storm come early. Colin shielded you from the downpour and you rushed back to the gazebo, huddled together and close to soaking.
As you shivered in each other's arms, Colin started to laugh.
"Well, there goes my brilliant proposal idea! Ah well, it still ended with you in my arms!"
(And here's your engagement ring! Yes its a tad gaudy but what piece of Bridgerton jewelry isn't?)

I’m a 5’9 girl, have brown skin, dark brown eyes, and curly/coily, brown hair. I have an athletic/rectangle-type body. I usually wear jorts/cargos and graphic tees when I feel masc. I love to wear crop tops and shorts when I feel more feminine.
im bisexual with a preference for men
im usually an extrovert on most days, especially with people I know, but sometimes I'm more introverted. i like to push myself to be a better version of me. i love adventuring, but I also enjoy relaxing a lot. i have a creative and active mind and I talk a lot. i love listening and debating on topics I enjoy.
i dislike people who are rude just to be rude/rude because they think its cool. people who give backhanded comments or gossip. i hate feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated, or just feeling tired in general.
irrational fear of heights lol. but really, im scared of not having a good future, and everything going wrong after college.
my hobbies are, reading, traveling, sports, writing, games, and baking
i love hugs and quality time with people I love, whether that be going out or just chilling at home.
what i prefer in a partner is someone who will be there for me when I struggle and feel overwhelmed. someone willing to be there for comfort, but also someone who isn't afraid of communicating their own feelings.
i think that's it, thank you!
okay so. ignore that this took even longer than it normally would.
because.
if you mention it, I might genuinely crash out
anyway.
(author's note: credits to gif owners, I do not own them. again, I literally cannot apologize enough, I am so sorry these are taking so long.)
It's shocking news. To hear that you're a demigod. The child, of a Greek myth.
Yeah right.
But, you suppose it would explain all the strange things that happened to you in your childhood. Apparently all of those myths that Mr. Brunner told you in school were real.
Because your best friend has goat hooves for feet???
He takes you to Camp Half-Blood, which your (apparently) satyr friend says is the only place safe for demigods like you. Almost everyone is shocked to meet you, especially because you're much older
He takes you to the Hermes cabin, where you'll stay until your Godly parent claims you.
And there, you meet
Travis Stoll
Now it may not be obvious at first, but let me explain.
He's one of the two head counselors for the cabin. Him and his brother personally get you situated into Camp life.
Connor finds you fun and polite enough, but it's Travis who has a crush on you.
It's like at first sight with you.
Connor and Travis have rather different types in women they like, which is why I personally see you with Travis more than Connor.
Connor likes girls who are softer. Maybe a little more "delicate". Girls who giggle at his every joke.
Travis likes his girls a little more athletic, of which there is no shortage of in Camp Half-Blood. He likes girls who are strong. Girl where he doesn't have to worry about them being hurt when he isn't around.
At first though, he doesn't even think his crush will go anywhere. He just likes to admire you from afar.
He's much too busy as a year-round Head counselor. Let alone, the replacement head counselor of a camper gone rogue.
The day his crush on you goes somewhere is when he finds you breaking down in a corner of the Hermes cabin. Your godly parent is just taking forever to claim you. You feel unwanted. Abandoned. Alone.
Now, this is nothing new to Travis. It's like a demigod's rite of passage into Camp Half-Blood.
Doesn't make it any easier to see someone else feeling the same way he did once upon a time.
He comforts you as best he can. He lets you scream and cry, or he lets you throw things around, if that's how you handle things.
And when you're done with your crying, he offers ways to get your mind off of it. Sparring, or drawing with you. Reading whatever textbooks the Big House has.
He even tells you about his own experiences with the gods. His own quests he's been on, big or small. He tells you about how his father claimed him. He isn't afraid of being vulnerable with you, even though all of his instincts are yelling at him to be paranoid.
From there, your friendship becomes something more. You find yourself looking for him whenever either of you have free time.
Since you enjoy active activities just as much as quieter ones, it's rather lucky Travis is the one who likes you. He's the same way.
He doesn't read as much, because even though all the books in Camp Half-Blood are written in Greek, he just doesn't like reading. But he'll listen to you read. He likes listening to you read aloud. Or even if you don't want to do that, he'll probably whittle away at a piece of wood while you draw.
His main love languages are quality time and acts of service after all. This is how he shows you he likes you.
It's very lucky that neither of you enjoy gossip. Travis hates rumors and all that what have you. It's a big reason why he doesn't get along with a lot of the Aphrodite kids.
His favorite dates with you are when you two go out and do something active. Preferably when you two can leave the camp. Not far, probably not even out of Manhattan.
He just wants to take you out to do something fun, that will leave memories that the two of you can cherish for a lifetime.
Honorable mentions!
Frank Zhang
You're actually pretty close to his canon romantic interest type. At least, what I'm imagining, based on your description. He also likes quieter activities, while still enjoying more physical things, too. You two would spend a lot of your time together since you enjoy many similar things. I just felt he'd be too obvious of a choice. (and also, he's from Heroes of Olympus, technically, and I didn't know if that's what you were also looking for.)
What a lovely dive into the world of Percy Jackson!
Now, it's time to move on from the world of gods and demigods, and into the world of pirates and giants.
You're sailing the Big Blue. Whether as a pirate or military, doesn't matter.
Either way, it's
Koby
He meets you by chance. Most likely while he's infiltrating a pirate's ship.
He finds you, probably being held hostage. And he rescues you.
He's enamored by you when you two first meet. He finds himself wanting to keep in touch with you after he's rescued you from the pirates, whether or not you are a pirate yourself.
He's proved before that he doesn't care about where you stand on that front. He just wants to hold your hand.
At first, he tries to get your attention by leaving you gifts. Anonymously, of course.
Training under Garp may have given him confidence in himself, but not confidence in his courting skills.
He leaves you little things like seashells he found along the beaches he came across that reminded him of you. Little flowers he came across while patrolling a town. Chocolates, if you're into those.
(He's getting all of his ideas from romance novels)
It takes him a long time to muster the courage to tell you who's leaving you those gifts.
Should you decide to accept him, I promise you that he's a great boyfriend.
He's attentive, and kind, and gives you everything that you want whenever he's able to. (His love languages are gift giving and quality time)
He makes time in his schedule for you. All of his vacation days are used up just for your dates.
He also enjoys just listening to you talk. He enjoys debating with you, just because he likes hearing your opinions and thoughts, even if sometimes he doesn't agree.
Also, he adores your style. Honestly, what someone wears isn't the first thing that catches his attention about people he's attracted to. It's their determination and their willpower that draws him in.
But he thinks you look cute in everything you choose to wear. Whether it be your crop tops and shorts, or your tanks and cargo jeans.
Really, he's just completely enamored by you.
Out of everyone, Koby is probably the most emotionally competent. At least, in the navy, he is. It's not often that you two have arguments. You understand that he does his best to make time for you, and he's very amenable to understanding you and how you work.
So when you two do get into arguments, Koby makes it a point to never raise his voice, no matter how frustrated he gets. He listens to what you have to say and is careful to change his behavior should he find you correct in what you're saying.
Relationships are a lot of work, but it's nothing he's not willing to do.
Honorable mentions!
Luffy
It's not that I thought he was obvious, although it was an obvious choice to me. It's that I think he might not be able to sit down for too long to have those long kinds of conversations that you seem to love. He's too hyper, he has to be doing something always. (and also he'd eat all your food)
This is a matchup trade for @sugutoad. Regular matchups are still closed. Without further ado...
•──⋅☾Cabin 6 - ATHENA ☽⋅──•
Reading through this, there was a constant voice in the back of my mind whispering “Athena” over and over again. I still pursued other options in the interest of not being basic because it almost felt too obvious. I entertained Nemesis for a long while, actually. Your inclination to hear out everyone’s opinions suggested a strong sense of justice and moral prolificity towards fairplay. That, paired with a blunt disposition and dry sense of humor really meshed with the goddess. You vibe like someone who is unabashed in calling out other people’s bullshit which is something that I felt carried strong Nemesis undertones.
However,
You know who else is known for possessing a strong bullshit detector? Athena. Furthermore, if your inclination towards ensuring others opinions are heard and considered stems from a desire to foster understanding and deepen perspective rather than merely in the name of justice and equality then I think that would actually make it more of an Athena trait.
Also your disregard for rules and structure is not very characteristic of Nemesis’ cabin simply because I feel as though those campers would respect rules (unless the rules directly went against their strong moral convictions) and crave a more structured, organized lifestyle.
Lastly, I think the one line that really sold me on it was your desire “to be the best”. The only cabin capable of outcompeting Athena’s is Nike’s and I did not feel as though your desire to win was quite that strong (willing to sacrifice relationships if it means being right/winning). However, that one line put you solidly in Athena territory for me. Your status as a Slytherclaw and an INTJ (characterized by prioritizing logic, reason, and organization) further cemented the notion.
All of that being said, I still get pretty strong Nemesis undercurrents from you so I would not be surprised if you were a legacy from Nemesis, or would be extremely close to the large majority of people in Nemesis’ cabin.
Like most of the other campers in your cabin, the RBF is quite strong. However, upon looking past outward appearances, there is a shared sense of camaraderie that is pervasive throughout the cabin.
A healthy amount of competition too.
Everyone is constantly pushing each other to their fullest extent, striving to be the best.
But in a way that doesn't involve tearing your competition down.
Because it is a sisterhood, you know?
This doesn’t apply to the other cabins.
Where capture the flag or inter-cabin competition is concerned- y’all are ruthless. Not quite to the extent of Nike, as a willingness to admit defeat is a core part of wartime tactics, but it can get pretty nasty.
Also, unlike Nike’s cabin, y’all are far less rowdy.
There is an understanding regarding the importance of quiet spaces to study and grow. Therefore strict quiet hours are in place at the cabin. This makes it the best possible retreat to study, read, or simply unwind after a stressful day of social interaction.
I can’t see Athena’s cabin being a party cabin to any extent (you’d have to go to Ares’ or Aphrodite’s for that).
Great friends with Hecate’s Cabin.
Whilst never mentioned in the books, there is a very similar dynamic between Athena and Hecate and I feel like the children of each goddess would get along.
The emphasis on academic success and high parental expectations is strong in both cabins.
As a result, I could see frequent trips between both cabins as study buddies or training partners. With Athena’s cabin focusing more so on the athletics and Hecate’s on the academics. This forms a symbiotic relationship in which both cabins assist and support each other where the other lacks.
Because nothing screams “gifted kid burn out” more than hating to study but also hating getting anything below a 90 on a test.
Being traditionally designated as the “smart kid” and coasting through school and tests due to your intelligence having never properly developed studying methods and then emotionally shutting down when academics start becoming actually challenging because you’ve internalized your intellect as a key personality trait resulting in a pervasive sense of imposter syndrome and inadequacy is so Athena-coded.
But I digress.
Also there are some major perks to having witchy friends.
The occasional pig-transforming spell or levitation potion goes a long way for hijinks and other rule-breaking, mischievous activities.
An adrenaline rush for sure, and a good way to absolutely traumatize the other campers.
They know they shouldn’t mess with either one of you.
Also, on the topic of breaking the rules.
Dress code who?
Yeah, you and the Aphrodite kids are not following the dress code. Ever.
Truly that neon orange is atrocious.
And dress codes stifles creativity and squanders individualism, regulating students to being part of a collective as opposed to embracing their unique self.
Or something like that.
If you and the rest of your cabin mates put your minds to it, you could write the single most convincing appeal to revoke dress code restrictions, get the signatures of every camper on campus, and deliver it to Chiron all neat and packaged with a wax seal.
And if that does not work, simply not follow it.
As a form of protest, of course.
They can’t punish all of you if everyone is doing it.
Hello! Can I have male matchup for Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and The Maze Runner?
𝗔𝗣𝗣𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘: 20 years old, 5'1", Southeast Asian. Chubby with brunette hair in Nov bute, chocolate brown eyes, and a small beauty mark on my forehead. My style is in between soft grunge and soft punk but loves to wear Korean makeup style

I may have a slight introverted tendencies who's religious, I describe myself as firey, confident, satirical, and passionate. Super talkative, sometimes hyper, giggly, nerdy, actually sweet and nice though I can be aloof. I tend stand boldly and fiercely on what I believe, and unbothered to be true to myself, clumsy, unfortunate and inattentive. I have "no bullsht attitude" towards the people that I hate, sarcasam and savegry is my main language. But on the other side, I overthink a lot and cry over small things many times, small mistakes leads me to probe even more that sounds like a drama queen, yet recognizes a soft spot for dumb jokes, cheesy pickup lines and prefer people with a good sense of humour who see myself as equal.

Fonds to eat a lot adoring desserts, pasties, and sweets especially chocolate.
Sorry this took a bit longer!
For tmr I match you with…
Minho
You have entire conversations in sarcasm.
I'm assuming sweets don't really exist in the tmr universe, but if they did, Minho would have the biggest sweet tooth so bonding over your favourites would be a thing.
He's probably pretty competitive so expect a lot of little competitions between the two of you. They're just silly things, like who can get to the other end of the Glade the fastest. Winner gets a kiss, so you really can't lose :)
These competitions continue all the way into the Safe Haven.
You're one of the only people outside of the Runners who know that the entire maze has been mapped already.
Minho asks you to take a look to see if your artistic mind picks up something everyone else missed.
In fact, this is probably how the two of you got close.
Now for hp I match you with…
Cedric Diggory
There’s a healthy competitiveness between the two of you.
The second he learns you like cheesy pickup lines, he bombards you with them. It becomes a game between you to see who can come up with the dumbest ones.
You shared your first kiss when you both snuck into the Astronomy Tower to watch a meteor shower.
So there are plenty of late-night dates either at the tower or by the lake, where you two just talk and watch the stars for hours.
Sneaking each other into your respective common rooms.
You probably steal his Hufflepuff scarf. He pretends it annoys him, but really, if you hadn’t stolen his he would’ve probably gotten you one of your own lol.
And finally, for pjo I match you with…
Jason Grace
Jason is a pretty laidback guy, but like you, he doesn’t hesitate to stand up for what he believes in.
He has the worst sense of humor. You can expect all the dad jokes to come out lol.
Lying in the grass together at night, just vibing to music and looking at the stars.
He’ll totally watch true crime documentaries with you. It fascinates him, though he isn’t sure why.
Please introduce him to gaming. He gets really into it and it’s so funny to watch.
I had a good time coming up with these, and I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for requesting, and have a lovely day/night :)
Hi if match ups are still available can I request a romantic one for the mcu and percy Jackson please. I'm a bisexual women that uses she/her pronouns with honestly no preference for either gender.
I'm 5'2 with shoulder length blonde hair and green eyes. I honestly dont have a set style, like one day I'll be wearing all black and the next I'll be wearing the brightest colours known to man, I do however prefer baggy clothes like large hoodies/t shirts and sweatpants and I wear glasses.
I have social anxiety so I'm very quiet before you get to know me but once you do I'm very sarcastic and playful. I'm a bit of a scatterbrain and am constantly forgetting things, I'm also very clumsy (I once broke three glasses and a plate within 2 weeks) and stubborn. I've been described as carefree and a freespirit by people who know me and as a very laid back person.
I like to cook/bake which I learned from my grandmother who was a professional chef before she retired, I like to watch crime documentaries as I find them very interesting but hate horror movies. I also read a lot of books mostly psychological thriller and mystery I also like to draw sometimes but not always and I want to either study to be a nurse or psychologist. I like to take care of people and help them although I don't always know how as I'm very awkward and blunt which means I can sometimes say the wrong thing but I don't mean to.
I don't like: winter time,ice, arrogance, being mean to others for no reason, nuts, and cliche cheesy romance movies.
Honestly I get attracted to either the very sarcastic and snarky character or the very soft/energetic character that wouldn't say anything bad about you ever.
thank you for choosing this blog for your matchup <3
PERCY JACKSON
ROMANTIC MATCHUP: Drew Tanaka
HOW YOU MET
At camp! You both knew each other by name for years and were on relatively good terms. You mostly knew about her because she knew a lot of gossip, she really did like to talk. (spoilers for the last olympian) She really changed after Silena's death and was appointed head of cabin, she was almost cynical for a good while there.
You two definitely did not get along at first, since you really disliked her arrogance, so it was a real enemies(ok probably more rivals) to lovers scenario, but I feel like she was comforted by that somehow???
Like she became strangely comfortable around you, you're first heart to heart together was when you were both alone and she kind of just poored her heart out it was wild.
But after that you were like ok she's not entirely horrible, she's doing her best to blah blah blah I'm not about to spoil my own hcs to you nonono.
Anyway, in summary you both knew each other since you were young but only grew closer years and years and years later.
RELATIONSHIP HEADCANONS
Ngl I have thought through everything this woman has done since her introduction so literally everything she says/does is really reall delibrate. Looking at you both it's like looking at a delibrate and cunning character and a wet cat, and she loves the wet cat in you :)
Ok I went on a rampage there but in summary, every gift and place she picks for you two to hang out is very specifc to you and memories she wants to share with you!! Though she can obviously slip up with how she words things, her constant priority is still always you!!!
She is your memory, she will remember everything for you. If you need to be reminded of something, she'll remind you right on time. You need someone to revise notes with you? Everything is easier to memorise with Drew by your side! She is vv good at making things easier to remember, I don't know how to explain it she just has that affect.
She is so whipped for you it should be illegal. Like you could do the most mundane or decently human thing and she's like "you are my sunshinebabygloriusstarladygoddess-" I feel like I should add on that she has the cutest nicknames for you, specilised to you too, like how annabeth and percy have seaweed brain and wise girl, Drew would have something similar for you <3
HANGING OUT
Ma'am is an absolute lotta true crime(penelope scott) vibes type of gal. She probably has strong opinions about known and lesser know murderers. She gets so cute when talking about it cause she's like "!!! and you won't believe this!!!" and she's just becomes so comfortable and enthusiastic I love her.
Her reading books and then telling you all about her reviews of them is just!!! Also if you recommend a book to her she will make comments on it as she goes through it, kinda like she's reacting like to a tv show to you, if that makes sense, live tweeting or smth might sound more familiar. Anyway she loves sharing her theories, reviews and just talk about books ingeneral!!!
She would love to take you out shopping!! The type of person to show her love primarily through gift giving, so please let her buy you things. She would buy them behind your back otherwise, she's too stubborn to just give up without getting you the gift. She's so awkward about it though, in a way she only gets around you. You make her feel some typa way yk?
I feel like she would enjoy showing off her clothes and makeup to you and just sharing it with you. She's passionate about it, she's even considering it as a career option, she wants to show you her cool lil things and then learn about yours in part!!! Sharing interests it everything, with either her rambling on or you rambling on, both are good.
MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE
ROMANTIC MATCHUP: Thor
HOW YOU MET
You met post Thor: Ragnorok Thor to be clear. Anyway you were traveling through New Asgard on a lil field trip when everyone got snapped back. Due to the commotion, things shut down for a while so you were stuck in New Asgard for a while.
Up to this point it was basically urban legend type stories you had learnt about Thor. I mean, a god from space? Sounds awfully convenient in this economy.
I just juked you out that's not when you first met. You both met on your second visit to New Asgard when you visited friends you had made during the blip incident.
So you both met, and Thor was still recovering from literally everything but he is recovering and he is gettig his found family yadayada.
You both have a minimum conversation as he says farewell to the mutual friend that you had came to meet and he's all like "farewell, fair maiden, until we meet again" on you swoon bc Chris Hemsworth amirite. ANYWAY you both do meet again after he comes back to visit after schenagians with the gotg gang(the movie hasnt come out idk what's going on)
RELATIONSHIP HEADCANONS
He is the counter weight of clumsiness, because he is also clumsy and two negatives make a positive right? Anyway, what I'm saying is that when you're clumsy, you'll have some comically helpful scene where Thor catches it accidentally and then he just looks up like "I got you pretty lady ;)" expect it's a lot less smooth.
Golden Retriver!!! He can make you comfortable in 0.00001 seconds or less. He is such a supportive guy, even if he may have no idea what he's supporting because god moment, but he is here for you!!! He probably talks to Bruce about how he can learn stuff faster to catch up with what you're saying.
You'll be happy to find out that this man also hates horror movies, BUT he did read Twilight bc Tony convinced him it was supposed to be a masterpiece. Please give him better recommendations he is in too deep it isnt ok nor fun for anyone.
I'm going to be entirely honest, please be patient with him, your humor flies over his head half of the time. He's still adjusting, but one thing he IS familiar with is sarcasm. I think he finds sarcastic people really comforting and cool, and he thinks you're the most comforting and coolest of them all.
HANGING OUT
He likes to tell his lil stories about Asgard and Loki and yadayada mr.i-am-so-cool-and-accomplished. Either way please listen to him!! He is so excited to have someone listen to his stories with any level of enthusiasm. I feel like in Thor: Ragnorok and after he's grown to realise that people express interest differently and now he's aware of that with you!!! Also every other thing will remind him of a story so prepare for anecdotes.
He likes to bake. He likes to bake earth recipes along with the occasional surprise asgard time recipe!!! He doesn't measure to your skill though, as he sometimes gets impatient when baking alone and juts, yeah. But baking with you is like youre both in your own world and time doesnt exist <3
He is a summer boy who likes to frolick in sunflower fields and have picnics. Cottagecore lifestyle with no cottagecore style. what im trying to say is life is simple, baking, picnics, chickens, I don't know. On that note, I DO know that Thor does really like chickens.
Friends!! He is a sociable guy who likes to talk and be with people. You know his friends, he knows yourselfs. You both go out for dinners, go shopping and see movies together. He's definitely a blessing on anyone's social life I'm telling you.
Hello!! I'm here to request a platonic percy jackdon matchup please. Take all of the time you need for this! I use any pronouns and I would prefer if you used gender neutral terms when referring to me, thank you <3
I’m a very animated person, kind of like I popped out of an animated movie, think encanto maybe. I am very expressional with my face, waving my hands around and just moving like I’m a smoothly done animation. I have a lot of nervous energy and I always need to be stimulated in some way, like moving my hand rapidly or playing with my hair/hands. I’m sorta like a cat, in the sense that I make cat like screeches and I’m very jumpy, I even jump at things I’m not really scared of lol.
As a friend, I tend to flirt a little(just for fun), so I would prefer not to have anyone who may take that the wrong way please. I genuinely find it really hard to show affection so I show it through playful kicks, punches and sometimes bites. I backtrack really quickly when I actually say something I’m sincere about, like how much my friend matters to me and such. I find it really hard to be comfortable and I’m always on edge. Commitment issues affect my friendships a lot tbh.
Lil rundown on me in general: I’m a really humorous person(I’m hilarious, trust me) and I can be really honest with people I don’t like. I find it hard to concentrate and remember things well, especially if I’m not interested but just in general. I’m a really petty and angry person in general, I find it hard to let things go. I take things at face value and I find it really hard to pick up on things like people dropping hints irl but I’m really good at identifying it in shows and stuff so that’s something! Not sure if this helps but I'm also a peter parker(mcu vers), will solace and percy jackson kinnie(no particular order)
HOBBY TIME!! I really like to listen to people talk!! I also love talking myself too but listening to people talk is so enlightening and rewarding I love it! I really love looking at media discussion and analysing, it’s one of the main things I connect with people over. I love talking about interpretations of characters, especially underdeveloped and under-used ones, they’re like a playground of inspiration! I love challenges like jigsaws and lego, so I like when the reward is a small building or an image from the jigsaw! I’m a theatre kid, I do dance, I act, I sing(badly). I also play guitar! I paint as a way to figure out how I’m feeling and process those feelings, which helps because my brain works very visually. I love creative things in general! I read and write a lot, and I sometimes get the urge to act out scenes, which is helpful when I’m writing because it helps me figure out if what I’m making the character do is physically possible!
Uhhh I don’t really have anything left to say I’m sorry! If you do have any questions or want to clarify anything don’t be afraid to message me!! I hope this is enough, but also not too overwhelming. Remember to take your time and take care of yourself. Hydrate and get yourself something to eat. Have a great week and happy writing <3
Sure thing!
I match you with...
Percy Jackson
You and Percy are both very animated people. Anyone listening to the two of you telling a story together will agree.
Friendly flirting gets taken to a whole new level when you're with Percy. It's just a game to see who can come up with the most outrageous things.
He makes a habit of trying to scare you. It's very innocent, just showing up beside you and saying hi, and then absolutely losing it when you actually jump (but the fun thing is that you can totally rope Nico into helping you get revenge).
You: "Gods, I'm so glad we're friends."
Percy, wrapping an arm around your shoulders as you're trying to backtrack: "Nope. Don't even think about. You're not getting rid of me."
People love being around the two of you because both of you are absolutely hilarious on your own, but combined? It's better than most stand-up comedy shows.
You spend hours analyzing your favorite movies and shows without even realizing how much time has passed.
Percy would totally be hanging upside-down off the couch while you're doing a jigsaw puzzle, just rambling about everything and anything, knowing that you're listening.
He will sing along if you're playing guitar, but he can't really sing. Sometimes, when he's trying, it's adorable though. When he's not trying... Well, let's just say that the neighbors aren't very fond of it.
If you're acting out a scene you wrote and you need a second person, Percy's your guy. You both goof around a lot, but when it comes down to it, he really helps you figure it out.
Even if you're still struggling with committing yourself to your friendship, Percy is the ride-or-die kind of friend from the moment he met you. You're just one of those people he looked at and thought 'yep, that's one of my people now'.
I hope you liked it! Thank you so much for requesting, and have a lovely day/night :)
